    Honestly, what i would like to see, is frequent updates/video's on this car.

It would be very cool to see this car slowly but surely getting put back together, seeing whats missing, what's there etc.
    As for the car itself, honestly, just use as it was intended. Rev and drive the nuts off it, don't baby it, rain or shine, bloody use it!

Maybe I’m on my own but I’d kinda prefer more consecutive updates of what’s already started instead of chucking in a new Ferrari series to add to the mix.. too many ideas too little time to fulfill them to their maximum potential?
